Rep. John Dzieglewicz (aka Dingell) was a double graduate of Georgetown getting his BS in chemistry!!! in 1949 and his JD in 1952. He was 92 years old at his death. After winning re-election in 2008 for his 28th consecutive term, Dingell surpassed the record for having the longest tenure in the House on February 11, 2009

So very sad that since Representative Dingell was a member of the Knights of Columbus, Mazie Hirono and Kamala Harris would not consider him fit to hold public office. This is not John Kennedy's Democratic Party anymore.
